Au contraire, Kristian - I think you should move your icons to the other side of your desktop cos Nick's picture looks great as it is ;-) The only thing I'd try different is blacking out the little circle completely rather than leaving the "stars" visible inside it.....
I pretty much like it just the way it is, great for a Mac desktop picture, which the icons fall on the right. I try to make mine where at least one row of icons can be easily seen if placed on either side.
I think it could use a little color variations in the cloud ..IMHO. :c)
An interesting effect - My only comment is that where the sonic boom ends and the stars begin could be a little less neat. If some of the rays could extend further out into empty space, I feel this would balance the image better.
Overall I love this image - Good job!
it is very cool buttt it would have kicked ass if u would have put some planets were the stars are and like color them in with some bright colors like bright blue ect. good job ith it thoe
I gotta agree with thewaldron, with a plugin like "AutoFX Mystical Lighting" it's done in no-time...sorry, consider my opinion as constructive criticism ;)
nice, love it, gonna be my desktop for a whle. only thing is my eyes are drawn to the center of the flare where the opening to the stars is, maybe blur it a little.
The colors are just exelent.
Where do you get such plug-ins ?
